Abstract

This paper is based on the experience gained in several iterations of software engineering courses held by the authors both at universities and in industry. The paper provides some reflections and lessons learned that can be used for designing or reflecting about software engineering education. The main contribution is the definition of five possible roles that industry can play in software engineering education from the point of view of the university teacher.
